Top 4 Tips to Clean Your Sidewalks

Sidewalks play a vital role in the way we live our lives. In cities, they are forever busy, crammed with people and eventually cover by dust, dirt, and mud. To begin with, they are an important medium to walk and reach your desired destination in the city. They can both be your best friend and your worst enemy. Clean Sidewalks have become a quintessential part of the American way of life. There was a time when these cement slabs were part of a humble neighborhood street that was dirty and neglected. The concept of beautiful and scenic sidewalks had become the talk of the town throughout the United States. Until now, every house that is being built has a clean, cemented sidewalk in front of it.

Lately, there is a lot of focus on Clean Sidewalks in all parts of the USA. Everyone wants to keep them clean and decorative. It is important to Clean a Sidewalk because it adds value to our homes and neighborhoods. We all want to live in safe and clean neighborhoods, away from hazards such as animals, contaminated water, and junk. Keeping our home's surroundings, including sidewalks, clean makes it a healthy place for everyone to reside. You can consult experts for NYC Sidewalk Repair.

When the sidewalk becomes dirty and slippery, you'd better clean it before it's too late. Here are some ways to clean a sidewalk:

Sweep and scrub the sidewalks, if possible. Don't forget the edges and cracks. If you don't have time, sweep it at least once a week and spot-clean it when needed.

Squeegee the sidewalk with a long-handled squeegee so that you can reach the cracks and corners. This can help avoid neighborhood children from slipping on the wet surface. Do this at least once a week to prevent any damage from occurring.

Water down the sidewalk with the garden hose–be sure not to do this in the middle of summer, as it will only contribute to making it hotter out there! The water should be just enough to create a thin layer of moisture on top of the concrete or asphalt.

Dust mop or sweep off the excess water. To make the Sidewalk floor dry and easy to walk on, remove excess water by mopping or sweeping it.

Everyone wants to live in a neighborhood that is safe and tidy, free from dangers like animals, polluted water, and trash. Keeping our home's surroundings clean, including the sidewalks makes it a healthier place for everyone to live. For professional assistance, you can consult violation removal services in nyc.

Former Gov. David Paterson warned Sunday that New York City could revert to the crime- and debt-riddled days of the 1970s if government doesn’t ease up on developers — adding the Big Apple’s migrant crisis is at its “tipping point,” too.

“Look what happened at the hotels where the hotels were filled up,” the former governor told host John Catsimatidis on “Cat’s Roundtable” on WABC-77 radio, referring to the city’s desperate attempt to house the flood of recent asylum-seekers from the US’ southern border.

“The excess migrants, mostly males … chose to sleep on the street rather than go to another facility,” Paterson, 69, said.

“I think it’s a tipping point,” he said of the crisis.

Paterson, 69, also warned that higher taxes, particularly on the real-estate industry, will cause more people and businesses to leave New York.

Albany lawmakers “seem to almost treat certain members of the population as if they were expendable. And they’re not expendable,” Paterson said. “We need them to be here. We need affordable and luxury housing.

“[The real estate industry] really is the backbone of the city. You’ll really find out how bad it can be if they do move away. Or you have situations like you had in the ’70s where you had the proliferation of crime and the un-affordability of housing… created a really squalid condition around the city.”

Paterson credited New York City Mayor Eric Adams with “bravely” standing up to the White House to demand federal dollars to help ease at least one dire situation — the migrant pressure on the five boroughs.

“Adams bravely has taken on the [Biden] administration and talked to them about the problems of sending all these migrants [to New York] but not sending any significant resources to help house them,” the former governor said.

He said this weekend marked one year since Texas Gov. Greg Abbott sent the first busload of asylum-seekers to the Big Apple from the US border with Mexico.

More than 54,000 have since been dumped in New York City, straining local services and finances.

He said fed-up New York City Public Advocate Jumaane Williams also spoke out last week about the issue.

“The excess migrants, mostly males … chose to sleep on the street rather than go to another facility,” Paterson, 69, said.Seth Gottfried

“He had a press conference warning President Biden that he might not get the votes out of New York that he thinks he would get if he doesn’t do something about this migrant crisis,” said Paterson, who as with Williams and Biden is a Democrat.

“Now, I don’t think that that would really happen, but it was certainly an element of frustration that the public advocate was fomenting that everyone else feels,” Paterson said.

The former governor added that things for the city will only get worse if government doesn’t wise up on how it treats developers.

He called the city development community “essential” and “the backbone of the city’s revenue” while recalling a recent chat with business leaders.

“What they raised is that the Albany politicians, as they put it, have no understanding of real estate development or business, have a total resentment against people who do it and that it is causing them to make their lives more miserable,” Paterson said.

“[The industry has] really picked up on that kind of resentment. It’s part of an overall problem… we’re having these days: We look at people. We find out what they do. And we have an immediate judgment against them without … spending any time trying to understand them,” Paterson said.

NYC Mayor Wants To Force People To Lower Their Mask (And Why This Is Not The Solution He Claims It Is)

Who hurt Mayor Adams and why does he go to such great lengths to cause so much harm to New York City? As an activist who loves their city, I prefer to shop at small local businesses versus the giant corporate chains, I realize how hard it is for a small business to make it (especially in these times) and how vital the movement to support them really is. That said, as a proud disabled woman who gets around via a motorized wheelchair, I sometimes have no choice but to shop at the larger chain stores due to accessibility issues. It only takes one step to prevent someone like me from having access to a store, but when I see that a small local business has put in the effort to get a ramp etc, it does not go unnoticed. But lately, Mayor Adams has added yet another obstacle for disabled people like me. I don't know what he hopes to accomplish by forcing store employees to harass customers like myself to lower our mask if we want to enter a store. While many people like to pretend that the pandemic is over (and I get it, we all want it to be, but fun fact: that's really not how this works), a lot of us do not have the luxury of such illusions. For people like us, wearing a mask is not optional. From the beginning of the pandemic, my safety as a disabled person has been at best an after thought. And now Mayor Adams wants to make it even harder by forcing people like me to lower our mask, which immediately puts me at risk for COVID. But he's not just harming people like myself. If I can't safely shop at the local stores, then I have no choice but to give my money to the larger online chains. As a result, smaller businesses will lose money, and is this really what Mayor Adams thinks the city needs right now? It also makes you wonder, where does the absurdity end? Many people for religious reasons cover their face (which is their prerogative.) Is the Mayor going to make store employees harass them as well? Will this policy be enforced consistently or will this turn into yet another form of profiling? Mayor Adams insists that this is being done in the name of public safety, but I think the majority of New Yorkers can see through that. After all, if the Mayor really wanted to reduce crime, then he wouldn't be so eager to massively cut funding to education and social services, while giving the NYPD an increased budget. More police has never been the answer, and if his goal was truly to reduce crime, then he would address the root issues as to why crime exists in the first place. Here's a hint: it has nothing to do with people wearing masks.

[image description a photo of New York CIty Mayor Eric Adams is stand outside. He is a bald man with brown skin, wearing a blue blazer with a white shirt. He is smiling and adjusting his collar. behind him you can see a sidewalk and various buildings that are blurry as he is the focus of the photo. ]

Election results could take days (NYT) Counting the votes will extend beyond election night on Tuesday, and determining the outcome of the presidential race could, too. Even in states that count their ballots relatively quickly, if the race is as close as the polls say, it could take days before a winner can be projected (election results are never official until final certification). In 2020, a record number of people voted by mail because of the pandemic, and many states were processing large numbers of mail ballots for the first time. While mail voting has dropped off in many states and others have made changes to speed up counting, these types of ballots are still more time consuming to count. Democrats have been more likely to cast mail ballots, and variations in timing for counting them can contribute to so-called “mirages” in the reported results—cases in which the type of ballots reported first favor one party in a way that is unrepresentative of the eventual result.

Fears of Civil Unrest Stalk the Markets (NYT) Wall Street strategists say their meetings with portfolio managers have taken a dark turn lately. All but gone are investors’ fears of a hard landing, replaced by a deeper anxiety that things could go very badly around Election Day. Investors are not just concerned about their investment portfolios or retirement funds. They’re worried about democracy. As in … will it hold up if the result of the election between Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris is contested? “The general consensus is that, one, it will take time to find the winner—so we might have to wait for weeks until the many contests and court challenges have played out,” Joachim Klement, the head of investment strategy at the investment bank Liberum, told DealBook. “And two, no matter who wins, there will be civil unrest.”

NYC declares a drought watch and asks residents to conserve water (AP) New York City Mayor Eric Adams issued a drought watch yesterday and urged residents to conserve water by taking shorter showers, fixing dripping faucets, sweeping sidewalks instead of hosing them down, turning off the tap while brushing teeth, and other measures. He also ordered all city agencies to get ready to implement their water conservation plans. Just 0.01 inches of rain fell last month on the city’s Central Park, whereas a normal October sees about 4.4 inches of precipitation, National Weather Service records show, making it the driest October in 150 years.

After Spain’s Floods, a Surge of Volunteers, and of Rage (NYT) They came by bus, by tractor or on foot. They waded through mud hoping to help clean up neighborhoods washed away by floodwaters that have killed at least 214 people. Thousands of Spanish citizens made their way to flood-ravaged Valencia over the weekend after the country’s worst natural disaster in recent history left the nation shocked by images of overturned cars and brick homes torn apart by furious water. The devastation has become a political flashpoint. On Sunday morning, as King Felipe VI walked through a crowd in Paiporta, a town in Valencia where more than 60 people died, angry protesters shouted and threw mud. And there was frustration that resources were being used for an official walk-through, while emergency workers were still racing to try to find survivors.

At least 36 dead after overcrowded and dilapidated bus skids into a deep gorge in northern India (AP) A poorly maintained and overcrowded bus veered off the road and plunged into a deep gorge in northern India on Monday in northern India on Monday, killing at least 36 people and injuring several others, officials said. The accident occurred in Almora district in the mountainous state of Uttarakhand. The bus was carrying around 60 people, and more than 20 have been injured, said Deepak Rawat, a senior state government official. India has some of the highest road death rates in the world, with hundreds of thousands of people killed and injured annually. Most crashes are blamed on reckless driving, poorly maintained roads and aging vehicles.

Fixing China’s economic crisis (Die Zeit/Germany) What does China’s party leadership do when it cannot get a persistent economic crisis under control? For example, it makes sure that economists who point out the seriousness of the situation “disappear.” This is exactly what happened with Zhu Hengpeng, vice director of the Economics Institute of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. In April, Zhu was believed to have made derogatory comments about the state of the Chinese economy and the economic expertise of party leader Xi Jinping in a private chat group. Since then, the scientist has not appeared in public, and his academy no longer lists him as an employee. As Stalin once said: Man gone, problem gone. Well, at least for the time being. Zhu is not an isolated case: the party is said to have recently urged other economists, in friendly or less friendly ways, to put the current economic situation in a positive light. However, this is becoming increasingly difficult.

A robot retrieves the first melted fuel from Fukushima nuclear reactor (AP) A robot has successfully made it into the core of one of the three damaged reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. The robot is the first of hopefully many to journey into the facility which suffered a meltdown in 2011 following a tsunami strike. The bot recovered a piece of radioactive slag as big as 5 millimeters from a mound of molten fuel debris. The sample will be analyzed, and what they find out will direct the plans for a 30- to 40-year cleanup of the 880 tons of radioactive molten fuel and decommissioning of the plant.

Netanyahu in fresh storm over Gaza hostages after arrests linked to alleged leak (Guardian) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government has found itself embroiled in yet another scandal. According to multiple sources, officials working on behalf of the prime minister’s office were involved in a plot to release doctored documents during ceasefire talks held this September. The faked documents supposedly revealed a Hamas plot to smuggle Israeli hostages out of Gaza and into Egypt, where they would be brought to Iran or Yemen. After leaking the edited documents to the press, Netanyahu then came to the negotiating table with a new demand—to keep Israeli troops posted on the Gaza-Egypt border—which Hamas rejected, leading to the talks quickly breaking down. Now, as the plot has been revealed to the Israeli public, the families of Israeli hostages and opposition leaders have criticized Netanyahu for tanking the hostage negotiations in an attempt to extend his war with Hamas and keep himself in power.

Israel ends agreement with U.N. agency for Palestinians (Washington Post) Israel informed the United Nations on Monday that it has terminated the decades-old agreement legally recognizing the U.N. agency for Palestinian refugees, which provides a humanitarian lifeline for people in the Gaza Strip. The move comes a week after Israel’s Knesset passed two laws that would severely imperil UNRWA’s activities and diplomatic privileges by blocking any activity on Israeli territory and forbidding government authorities from directly communicating with the agency. Israel has long been critical of UNRWA and accused it of being infiltrated by Hamas, a claim the agency has denied. UNRWA says it distributes food aid to more than a million Palestinians in Gaza who depend on humanitarian aid.

Israeli forces used civilians as human shields in Gaza, Palestinians and soldiers say (Washington Post) For two weeks in late July and early August, said Mohammed Saad, 20, he and two other Palestinian men were forced by an Israeli army unit in Gaza to enter buildings feared to contain explosives and photograph every inch before troops were given the all clear to enter. When the soldiers were done with him, he said, someone shot him in the back. Saad was among four Palestinian men who spoke on the record to provide vivid accounts of what they described as Israel employing detained Palestinians as human shields in Gaza—defined by the Geneva Conventions as using civilians or other detainees to shield military operations from attack—in this case, by forcing them to carry out life-threatening tasks to reduce risk to Israeli soldiers. Their nearly contemporaneous accounts are detailed, corroborated by other witnesses, and consistent with testimony by an Israeli soldier. “This wasn’t something that happened just here and there but rather on a large scale throughout a number of different units, at different times, throughout the war and in different places,” said Joel Carmel, advocacy director of Breaking the Silence, an organization that collects and verifies testimonies from troops who have served in the occupied Palestinian territories.

From The Middle East, All American Presidents Look The Same (Daraj/Lebanon. Opinion) On the eve of the U.S. elections, after months of blatant lies and empty promises, the whole world is anxiously waiting and wanting to know who will be the American president for the next four years. It’s the same old farce. Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, if she wins, will continue her party’s policies that have supported genocide in Gaza. Or if he wins, Republican candidate Donald Trump will return to the White House to continue his destructive policies that he began in his previous term. For decades, the Middle East has suffered from being the object of American policy, as a chess piece in a power game not about freedom or democracy, but about domination, exploitation, and, above all, hypocrisy. It is a grotesque theater of the absurd where from one administration to the next, whether Democratic or Republican, the tone remains the same: unwavering support for authoritarian regimes, military interventions disguised as humanitarian efforts, and unwavering loyalty to the Israeli occupation. Successive American presidents have been complicit in enabling Israel's apartheid policies, from the occupation of the West Bank to the repeated massacres in Gaza. Year after year, administration after administration, the United States continues to pump billions in military aid to Israel, while turning a blind eye to Palestinian suffering, whether through direct complicity or passive silence.

29 Nigerian children may be sentenced to death for protesting against cost-of-living crisis (AP) Twenty-nine children could be facing the death penalty in Nigeria after they were arraigned Friday for participating in a protest against the country’s record cost-of-living crisis. Four of them collapsed in court due to exhaustion before they could enter a plea. A total of 76 protesters were charged with 10 felony counts, including treason, destruction of property, public disturbance and mutiny, according to the charge sheet seen by The Associated Press. According to the charge sheet, the minors ranged in age from 14 to 17 years old. Frustration over the cost-of-living crisis has led to several mass protests in recent months. In August, at least 20 people were shot dead and hundreds more were arrested at a protest demanding better opportunities and jobs for young people.

Infinite Monkeys (BBC) A new study sought to actually figure out how right the adage is that if given an infinite amount of time, a monkey on a typewriter will eventually write the complete works of William Shakespeare. In yet another instance of “infinity is really very hard to contemplate,” the study found that a random primate at a keyboard clicking one key per second only has a 5 percent chance of writing the word “bananas” within its own lifetime, and anything more sophisticated like “I chimp, therefore I am” has a chance of one in 10 million billion billion. Indeed, the paper argues, the global population of 200,000 chimpanzees grinding at the problem would almost certainly experience the heat death of the universe before pulling off that brief five-word sentence.

Concrete Sidewalk Repair Near Me: Expert Solutions for Sidewalk Maintenance in NYC

Sidewalks play a vital role in urban infrastructure, providing safe and convenient pedestrian pathways throughout New York City. However, due to exposure to weather conditions, heavy foot traffic, and natural wear and tear, sidewalks can become cracked, uneven, or damaged over time. Maintaining sidewalks is crucial not only for aesthetics but also for ensuring pedestrian safety and avoiding potential legal liabilities. If you're searching for “concrete sidewalk repair near me,” you’ve come to the right place. At Mason NYC, we offer professional and reliable concrete sidewalk repair services across the city, ensuring that your sidewalks remain in excellent condition.

As a leading provider of concrete sidewalk repair in NYC, Mason NYC has the experience, expertise, and resources to handle any sidewalk issue, from minor cracks to complete concrete replacements. We understand the importance of timely repairs and delivering long-lasting solutions that enhance the safety, functionality, and appearance of your property.

Why Do Sidewalks Need Repairs?

Concrete sidewalks, like all structures, are subject to deterioration over time. Factors such as weather fluctuations, tree roots, and daily wear can cause damage that requires attention. Below are some of the key reasons why sidewalks may need repair:

1. Cracks and Potholes

Concrete sidewalks are prone to cracking due to the freeze-thaw cycle that is common in NYC’s climate. During the winter, water can seep into small cracks, freeze, and expand, causing the cracks to grow larger. Similarly, heavy foot traffic, vehicles, and natural settling can create potholes. If left untreated, these cracks and potholes can become safety hazards and lead to more extensive damage.

2. Uneven Surfaces

Uneven sidewalks occur when one section of the concrete shifts or sinks, often due to soil erosion or tree root growth. These uneven surfaces are tripping hazards and can result in injuries to pedestrians. Additionally, uneven sidewalks can prevent accessibility for those using mobility aids, such as wheelchairs or strollers.

3. Spalling and Flaking

Over time, concrete can begin to spall or flake due to exposure to harsh weather conditions or the use of de-icing salts. This type of surface deterioration not only affects the appearance of the sidewalk but also reduces its durability. If left unaddressed, spalling can lead to deeper structural problems that require more extensive repairs.

4. Tree Root Damage

The beautiful, tree-lined streets of New York City are part of the city’s charm, but the roots of those trees can sometimes disrupt sidewalks. Tree roots grow underneath the sidewalk slabs, pushing the concrete upward and creating hazardous, uneven surfaces. This is a common problem in many neighborhoods, particularly in areas with older trees.

The Importance of Timely Sidewalk Repairs

Addressing sidewalk damage promptly is essential for several reasons:

1. Pedestrian Safety

Cracked or uneven sidewalks pose a significant risk to pedestrians. Tripping over a crack or uneven surface can result in serious injuries, such as sprained ankles, fractures, or head injuries. Ensuring that sidewalks are smooth and level helps to prevent accidents and ensures the safety of everyone who uses them.

2. Legal Compliance

In New York City, property owners are responsible for maintaining the sidewalks adjacent to their properties. The NYC Department of Transportation (DOT) conducts inspections, and if your sidewalk is found to be in poor condition, you may receive a violation notice. These violations can result in fines and even force you to pay for costly repairs through a city contractor. By hiring a professional concrete sidewalk repair near me service, like Mason NYC, you can avoid these penalties and stay compliant with local laws.

3. Aesthetic Appeal

Sidewalks that are in disrepair can detract from the overall appearance of a property, especially in front of homes, businesses, or public buildings. Repairing damaged sidewalks not only enhances safety but also boosts curb appeal, which is particularly important for property owners looking to maintain or increase their property value.

4. Prevention of Further Damage

Small cracks and minor damage can quickly worsen if not addressed. Harsh weather conditions, foot traffic, and soil movement can cause cracks to spread or sidewalks to sink further. Timely repairs help prevent small issues from turning into costly, large-scale problems.

If you don't receive a response within a reasonable time, you can follow up with the DOT to check the status of your request. They may provide you with an update or estimated timeline for the repair.

How much does it cost to fix a small crack in the sidewalk?

The cost of fixing a small crack in the sidewalk can vary depending on a few factors, such as the size of the crack and the materials needed for the repair. In general, smaller cracks can be repaired with simple methods like filling them with concrete or sealant, which can be relatively inexpensive. However, for a more accurate estimate, it's best to consult with a local contractor or professional who can assess the specific crack and provide you with a cost estimate. They'll be able to give you a better idea of the expenses involved.

Temporary solutions for a trip hazard on the sidewalk

If you come across a trip hazard on the sidewalk, there are a few temporary solutions you can try:

Mark the Hazard: 

Use brightly colored tape or paint to mark the area and make it more visible to pedestrians. This can help alert people to the potential hazard.

Place a temporary barrier: 

If it's safe to do so, you can place a temporary barrier, such as cones or caution signs, around the hazard to prevent people from accidentally tripping.

Report the Hazard: 

It's important to report the trip hazard to the appropriate authorities, such as the local municipality or transportation department. They can take the necessary steps to fix the issue and ensure the safety of pedestrians.

Remember, temporary solutions are meant to provide a temporary fix until the hazard can be properly repaired. It's always best to prioritize safety and report any hazards you come across.

Conclusion

Property owners and the NYC government both share responsibility for maintaining a sidewalk. By understanding who is responsible for sidewalk repair, you can save pedestrians from major accidents and injuries.

32 Tips For Finding Pressure Washing Companies Near Me

Professional pressure washing services provide an effective way to renew surfaces like driveways, patios, and sidewalks that can become discolored by oil spots, mildew, and mold. Having a clean home can also boost its curb appeal and improve its resale value, making it an investment that pays off in the long run.

Whether you are looking to hire a professional to pressure wash your house or would like to start your own business, there are several ways to find new customers and grow your pressure washing companies near me. Read on to discover 32 tips for finding commercial contracts, landing residential jobs, and growing your small business.

The cost of pressure washing a home depends on the size of the area to be cleaned, the amount of dirt and debris that needs to be removed, and the extent of the work required to accomplish the cleaning. Some companies quote their pricing based on the square footage of the home or structure, while others use a flat rate for all residential jobs regardless of size or complexity. In either case, a thorough job should take an average of four hours per 1,500-square-foot home.

Power washing is an excellent solution to a dirty house, but it’s important to hire a qualified and experienced contractor to avoid damage. Professionals know how to properly adjust the power settings of their washers to avoid etching or harming delicate surfaces, such as cedar, or causing water damage around windows. They also know what types of detergents, water pressure, and nozzles will work best for each surface type and condition.

If you have a large exterior space that needs to be cleaned, you may want to hire a professional team that offers multiple services in addition to pressure washing, such as painting or staining. These additional services can save you time and money by allowing you to get everything done at once instead of scheduling multiple appointments.

Many people choose to have their homes pressure washed in the spring, but there is no one-size-fits-all answer for when to have a home cleaned. Pressure washing can benefit your property year-round, especially if you have oil spots from leaky vehicles or a roof with moss and mildew growth.

It’s also an excellent idea to have your home pressure washed before you put it on the market or schedule a pre-purchase inspection, as this can help increase its resale value. In addition, a home that is regularly pressure washed can prevent its paint from flaking and peeling, ensuring it retains its beauty for longer. To learn more about the benefits of having your home professionally pressure washed, contact us at Mike’s Power Washing. We are a family-owned and operated NYC, Queens, Brooklyn, Staten Island, and The Bronx pressure washing company that is fully licensed, insured, and bonded to ensure your peace of mind. Our professional and reliable technicians will use high quality, eco-friendly, bio-degradable, and green cleaning solutions to thoroughly clean every inch of your property and restore its natural beauty.

An unappreciated and neglected resource, their energy goes unharnessed." - Anne Whiston Spirn, The Granite Garden, 1984
